treemanifest: visit directory 'foo' when given e.g. '-X foo/ba?' For globs like 'foo/ba?', match._roots() will return 'foo'. Since visitdir(), excludes directories in the excluded roots, it would skip the entire foo directory. This is incorrect, since 'foo/ba?' doesn't mean that everything in foo/ should be exluded. Note that visitdir() is called only from the treemanifest class, so this only affects tree manifests. Fix by adding roots to the set of excluded roots only if there are no excluded patterns. Since 'glob' is the default pattern type for globs, we also need to update some -X patterns in the tests to be of 'path' type to take advantage of the visitdir tricks. For consistency, also update the -I patterns. It seems a little unfortunate that 'foo' in 'hg files -X foo' is considered a pattern because of the implied 'glob' type, but improving that is left for another day.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
